Price increases are expected on the iPhone 15s this year, but it’s unclear at this time what will happen to prices for the watches. As a reminder, the Apple Watch Ultra was launched in 2022 at a high price of 999 euros.

Given that Apple has just unveiled its 15-inch MacBook Air with M2 chip at 1599 euros, it is not known if its successor will arrive at the same time as the smaller model, but that should become clear soon.
Apple would also work on new iMac models with 24-inch screens, thus skipping the M2 generation that we were expecting earlier in the year. Also, Gurman mentioned an upcoming model ofiMac with a screen larger than 30 inches, without further details, which could potentially serve as a long-awaited successor to the old iMac Pro.

Gurman also reaffirmed that Apple plans to update the iPad lineup in 2024. These updates are expected to include iPad Pro models equipped with OLED screens, giving users a better display quality, as well as a refreshed iteration of the iPad Air. We also know that Apple could charge its iPad Pro OLED more expensive than a MacBook Pro, given the high price of OLED panels.
